ZIONEY MARKET AND COltlanCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE o'CLocK. A steady business is reported in the general dis count market, and there is no alteration in the rate. The liquidation of the bills due to-day (Saturday) makingis satisfactory progress. In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon there was a slight advance in the rates on Paris. Since Mond :y last the imports of specie have amounted to £127,600, and the exports to £318,300. We are informed that Mr. A. J. White, in conse quenceof ill health, will retire from the management of the City Bank on the 30th inst., when he will join the Board as a director. The management will then be confided to 'Mr. J. W. Duncan, the present Bub-manager, conjointly with Mr. A. G. Kennedy, fr °nl the London Joint Stock Bank, as joint tan ager. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap pointed a special settlement on Tuesday next in the shares of the following companies :—Oriental Fin ancial Corporation, which is to be marked in the °facial list; and in the Uni7zed Merthyr Collieries' Company, not to be marked. Notice has been given, that the subscription list of " the Italian Land Company" will be closed to London applicants on Monday next, the 6th inst. Two o'CLocK. At Paris this morning, according to Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were 67f. 10c. O wing to the fineness of the weather and the quietude of business, the attendance at the Stock Exchange to-day has been below the average. There have been very few operations, and those chiefly to close outstanding engagements. Consols are without the slightest change at 90 I-, less the dividend for money and account. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 89 a ; Exchequer Bills, March, 12s. to 7s. dis. ; do., June, 6s. to ls. dis. ; India 5 per Cents., 104 ex div. ; do. Debentures, 981 ; and do.

Business in the Railway Share Market has been very quiet, although in one or two instances Prices have slightly improved. North Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Great VV esters have each advanced ss. ; and Midland and North Eastern (Berwick), 108.; while Metropolitan have declined 103. The Foreign and Colonial lines show little or no variation; Bank and Miecellaneous Shares have continued in very limited re quest, and the few dealings entered into have been at about previous quotations.

ALLEGED POISONING.—Au inquest took place yesterday before Mr Rupert Clark, coroner for 1 3erkshi re , a t t h e P r i nce Albert Inn, Clewers-green, Wind sor, into the circumstances attending the death of Mrs Harriet Elizabeth Maria Ward, of Elm-lodge, Golders green, Ileudon. The deceased lady was 56 years of age, and had died on the 3d of May, and been buried at Windsor on the 9th of May. At the instance of Mr Henry Ward, the brother-in-law of the deceased, the present inquiry had been instituted, and the body of Mrs Ward had been exhumed for examina tion. The evidence adduced was to the effect that Mr Ward entertained suspicions that the deceased had been poisoned by parties interested in the disposition of her pro perty, which had been left in her will away from his family. An examination had been made by Professor A. S. Taylor of certain portions of the body of the deceased lady, but no poison was found, nor were the symptoms of the deceased consistent with the action of any known poison. Death was evidently from natural causes. The jury returned a ver diat in accordance with this evidence, and expressed an o rinion th a t th e rumour which had prevailed in connection with the names of certain friends of the deceased was totally tie."ict of foundation, BEARE MARRE T S —This day.

This was a suit promoted by the plaintiff, Mr. Steven Hart, a farmer residing at Wistell, near Ashford, in Kent, to establish the will and codicil of Miss Elizabeth Chapman, an aged lady, who died at Penton Court, near Ashford, on the Bth of October, 1863. leaving property to the amount of between £BOB and £3OO a year. The will was executed as far back as October, 1842, and the codicil (which was the only instrument in dispute) was made in 1861. The defendant pleaded undue execution, undue influence, and want of testamentary incapacity. By the will the de ceased made several bequests to her servants and friends, but made no promise to her relatives, who were remote, and by the codicil she left Mr Hart, who was her bailiff and rented a farm from her, and other tenants, their farms, on the condition of their paying her sister, Miss Ca therine Chapman, who was a lunatic, and to whom she had been appointed guardian, £lO a year during her life. It was stated by counsel that Mr Horne, one of the deceased's tenants, had been her bailiff ; but although she remembered him in her will, she became dissatisfied with his manage ment of her affairs, which she entrusted to the plaintiff in 1835. He placed them in a proper position. The deceased was 73, and only ten days before her death transacted some business. The court pronounced in favour of the will. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Registrar Murray.) IN RE STIFF. This was a dividend meeting under the estate of this bankrupt, formerly proprietor of the Morning Chronicle newspaper. It appears from the report of Messrs Hart Brothers and Hayles, who had been appointed as accountants to the estate, that the petition was issued on the 20th March, 1862, and the debts and liabilities amounted to £38,330 14s. 7d., and the assets were stated at £23,770 4s. 6d., leaving a deficiency of £14,560, accounted for by the deficiency, paper, stock and cash accounts. A dividend of 7s. in the pound has already been paid, and, after deducting for proofs admitted this day, it is ex pected there will be a further dividend of 6d. in the pound. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY - EVENING, JUNE 4, 1864. SPORTING NOTES, THE FRENCH GRAND PRIX. The above race, which is composed of both French and English horses, takes place in Paris to• morrow (Sunday). It is to be hoped that the unfortunate ill-feeling caused by Fille de rAir's Two Thousand running will have completely passed away when the horses are stripped at the post. Only two or three Engli s h h or ses are under orders, among whom are the w inner of the Derby and Glendusk. The latter is almost certain to run into a place. Blair Athol, if none the worse for the sea voyage, can scarcely lose. Fille de l'Air won the English and French Oaks so easily, that it is just possible she may defeat the Derby victor, Bois Roussel!, the winner of the French Derby, will have a very different class of horses to run against than were opposed to him on that occasion. My opinion is that the judge will have little difficulty in placing BLAIR ATHOL My anticipations for the Ascot meeting will appear in 711 e Sun of Monday. A FRESH MAN.

London : aS at Bradfield, • the riew and Sheffield,en.— f will not be effaced from the memory of the i nea b r l' long year to come; and as similar i may ° lead f or mtaon many the same disastrous, or even worse, results in other localities where there are reservoirs busting t fri ghtful in reservoirs, Mr. Naylor does the State ser vice in drawing attention to the subjec t by his th brochure. It would ill become us to step i, where doctors disagree, on the cause with the n accident . opinion Whether, as Mr. Rawlinson maintains, it arose from the de- feetive construction of vethe embankme n t, or , as Mr. Nay lor a ffirms, from a la nd sl i p, e must leav e to oth e rs more scientific to decide, but . a practical m ora l ma y b e drawn from the assumpti on of e ither hypothesis. If the Govern ment engineer be sound in his opinion and deductions, all reservoirs already construc itedon similar principles to that of Bradfield should b?immediately carefully exa mined by skilled engineers, and their condition reported on, in order to prevent mischief. ere it be too late. If, on the other hand, M r Naylo r ' s th eory i s correc t , that a landslip cau sed the sinking of the em b an k men t, th en i ncrease d vigilance in watching all large reservoirs be comes an indispensable duty. No science, no art can altogether exempt us from the effects of physical pheno mena, but a little provision may greatly mitigate or even hinder disastrous consequences. In this c as e it ap pears from Mr Naylor ' s testimony, and from the evidence that some hours before the accident occurred cracks and fissures had b. eon observed on th e w a lls of a cottage in the vicinity and in the embankment itself ' and the probability is, tha t had a strict exam i nat i on b een m ade diurnally. the slip ought have been discovered earlier, and the water let out, providing there had been, as we think there ought to be in all such places, rapid means of carrying off the water. It may be open to consideration how far it is justifiable to store up such enormous volumes of water in one spot, and whether a range of smaller reservoirs would not obviate danger. London has lately witnessed the de molition of a very high and very ugly embankment of this kind in the Hampstead -road, the bursting of which in a densely-populated neighbourhood would have been far worse oven than at Sheffield; but there are several other reservoirs in and close to London—one in the Yentonville-road, and sever.al on tho high land near High gate and Hampstead . It . is to be . hoped they may all be subjected to the most rigid examination and test, if they cannot, as we think they ought to be, removed from the close proximity to a dense o cc ppultion. Thus out of evil good may come. an d, on aount of the sad a ccident at Sheffield, measures may be takon to revert the like ills in future.

This bankrupt, Mrs M artbs, Aldridge, had carried on business in the Borough market, and her total debts amount to £l4O, £lO9 of which is for law costs, It appeared that she had•brought an action against a railway company for damage sustained by the non• delivery of goods, and in the first instance obtained a verdict ; but which was, how ever, set aside on one of those technicalities under the Carriers' Law of shifting responsibility. The bankrupt obtained an immediate order of discharge, POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A SUCCESSFUL MENDICANT, - Thomas Roberts, a miserable.• looking eld man, was charged before Mr Yardley with begging. Edmund Hutton, 34 C, proved seeing the prisoner begging of ladies and gentlemen in Soho-square. On searching the prisoner at the station he found 7s 6d in his possession. Burns, the gaoler, stated that a short time ago the prisoner was brought to the court on a similar charge, and then about 16s was found upon him. Mr Yardley said it was clear the prisoner was an in corrigible, and certainly a successful beggar. He should commit him for a month with hard labour. THAMES. STRIPPING CHILDREN OF THEIR CLOTHES,—ARTFUL THIEVES —Matilda Taw the elder, aged 45, and Matilda Taw, her daughter, 14, both well dressed, were brought up on remand before Mr Paget charged with stripping chil dren of their clothes in the public streets. There were six charges against the prisoners, but owing to the tender ages of the little ones who had been robbed, only one oould be entered into, and in that case there was evidence independent of the children that lied suffered. On Wednesday fortnight two children, a girl and a boy, named Aubrey, whose father carries on the business of a chemist and druggist in High.street, Poplar, were on their way home from school, and were stopped by the pri soners, who took from the boy his seal-skin cape, and from the girl her frock and boots. A milk boy named John Biggs saw the children seated on the banks of the river Lea Cut at Limehouse and crying. The boy, who is only 4i years old, was without his cape; the girl who is (3 years old, was without her frock and boots. Biggs carried the little girl some distance, and her crinoline petti coat scratched his face and became so inconvenient that he got rid of her, and gave her to a lady and then took charge of the boy. The children were taken home to their parents. The boots and frock were produced. They were sold by the prisoners to a married woman named Mary Seeger, the wife of a shipwright dwelling in Poplar. bhe gave is 9d for the frock, and 2s for the boots. The younger prisoner represented to Mrs Seager that the things were left in her mother's house by a captain's lady who owed her money, and that she had no children who could wear them. When the elder prisoner was taken into custody by Ponsford, 260 K, she admitted hav ing sold the boots and frock to Mrs Seager. He locked her up, and went to 33, Morant-Street, Poplar, where he saw the younger prisoner, who said that a captain's lady gave the things to a Mrs Penton, and Mrs Penton gave them to her mother. The girl also said that Mrs Penton lived in a street at the top of the Commercial-road. Par ticular inquiries had been made for Mrs Penton i who was described as a tall lady of 30, but no such person was knowd at the Poplar Music Hall or any other hall. The elder prisoner also represented that her son was a dancer and clown at the Poplar Music Hall and other places. Ponsford took the boy with him to all the places mentioned by his mother. He was quite un • known—he was neither a dancer nor a clown. Inspector Bruce, of tho K division, said the woman was known as Mrs. Tyler, and her husband was a ship carpenter. The family were in tolerably easy circumstances Some of the robberies of children had produced much suffering. There were children in court who had been stripped of their clothing by the prisoners. Mr. Paget—The children are too young to be sworn. Is there any other evidence to connect the prisoners with those robberies ? Inspector Beare said unfortunately there was not. He should mention that Mrs. Taw was known by the name of Tyler. Mrs. Seager—l know her by the name of Tyler, The younger prisoner was first called upon for her de fence. She said, with an air of simplicity, please, sir, I met a lady at the top of the Commercial-roe, and she asked me if I would have a frock and boots for nay sister's chil dren ? I said " yes," but I did not give them to my sister, I sold them to Mrs Seeger. The elder prisoner, in defence, said—l can't say more than my daughter. They wero sent to me, and my daugh ter said she would sell them to get some money. Mr Paget committed the prisoners for trial. He thought this was a very important case— one of the most serious cases he had ever heard, It was the worst kind of robbery to strip little children. The evil had gene on to a serious extent. He would suggest that the Commissioners of Police ought to adopt measures for a prosecution of this case by the Solicitor to the Treasury. Mr Beare—l will communicate your remarks to Sir Richard Mayne, WESTMINSTER. THE PROGRESS OF INTEMPERANCE.—Thomas Bayley, a labourer, was charged before Mr Selfe with being drunk and annoying Police-constable 363 B, while in the execu tionof his duty. The constable stated that about 10 o'clock last night he was on duty in Arabella-row, Pimlico, when the prisoner came up to him and said, "Do you call yourself a police man? I will fight you." Witness requested him to go away several times, and observed that if he did not he should be compelled to take him to the station, and as he refused to go witness took him into custody. Selfe—Was he drunk ? Witness—He was, your worship; and would insist on fighting me. Prisoner was fined 5s or seven days. A PAIR OF DRUNEARAS.—Sarah Bailey and Mary Ann Matthews, respectable-looking young women, were next placed in front of the bar, charged with being drunk and incapable. B 265 stated that he was on duty about 10 o'clock the previous evening in Pimlico. The prisoners were making a great noise, and he went up to them and found they were the worse for liquor. They were in front of a house, whore they were causing a great disturbance. They were given into custody by the landlord of the house. As they had been similarly charged on a former occasion, they were severally fined ss, or in default seven days. A DRUNKEN TAILOR.—Henry Rogers, a spare, half starved looking man, was charged with detaining a coat which had been given to him to make. The prisoner admitted having had the coat, and said he lost it one day while he was drunk. Bewould pay the value of it. Another claimant made application for another coat, which the prisoner stated was loft by him at a publichouse which he frequented. The applicant could have it by going there. The prisoner then left the court. The Olympic Theatre his been transferred to a joint-stock company, the capital of which is stated to be £12,500, in 2,500 shares of £5 each. Only 92 shares had been taken up to the 25th ultimo. The directors are the Hon. F. G. B. Ponsonby, G. A. F. C. Bmtinck, M.P. for Taunton, and Tom Taylor and Horace Wigan, Esqrs,— Sunday Times.

LONGWO2TH (OR YELVERTON). The facts of the case are as follows :—Mrs. Maria Theresa Longworth is the daughter of Thomas Longworth, Esq., of Smedley Park, Loreto:hire, deceased, described as a gen tleman of ancient family and of a large property. In 1852 she became acquainted with Major 'William Charles Yel verton, while travelling from France to England, A year afterwards a correspondence commenced between them. In the autumn of 1851 Major Yelverton went from Malta to the Crimea on military duty, at the outbreak of hostilities with Russia. After the commencement of the war Miss Longworth joined the French Sisters of Charity and went to Constantinople, and acted as nurse along with them at the Galata Hospital. Major Yelverton met her in Con stantinople in August, 1855, and according to her account courted her and promised to make her his wife. Miss Longworth said she accepted him for her husband, tut that he wished the marriage not to take place until after the termination of hostilities. Major Yelverton ad mitted that he called upon her at the hospital, but said she had asked him to do so; that she had furnished him with her addrass, adding that he had only seen her once before on board the steamer from Boulogne to London in 1855. In 1856, after hostilities had ceased, Miss Longworth visited Mrs Straubenzee, the wife of the general of that same, who then commanded the light divi sion of the British army. While there she frequently saw Major Yelverton, and she said that the engagement made at Constantinople was frequently the subject of their con versation. Major Yelverton represented to her that he was in great pecuniary embarrassment, and dependent on his uncle, who would give him no further assistance if he married. The engagement to marry her was, however, denied by the major, In 1857 Miss Longworth came toEng land, and went to reside at Edinburgh. There the major, who was stationed at Leith Fort, renewed tho intimacy, and proposed that they should be married privately. The major said that the intimacy was brought about by Miss Longworth, who sent a note requesting him to call upon her. It appeared, according to Miss Longworth's account, that on April 12, 1857, at No. 1, St. Vincent-street, Edinburgh, they both declared and acknowledged each other to be man and wife. They further read through the Marriage Service of the Church of England together, and at the con clusion of it Major Yelverton said to her, " This makes you my wifo according to the law of Scotland." The whole of these alleged facts were denied. The parties then separated, Major Yelverton going to Ireland and the lady to visit her sister in Wales. Subsequently she met him by agreement at Waterford, in Ireland, and some few days after they were married at Killroney, in the parish of Rostrevor, by the Catholic priest, she alleging that such marriage was in tended to be a valid bonafide marriage, and Major Yelver ton stating that the lady was perfectly aware that it wan not binding, but wanted it to take place as a salve to her conscience. They travelled about for some time after, until, in 1858, Major Yelverton married Mrs Forbes, when litiga tion at once commenced. The circumstances of the trial in Ireland, when the respondent was declared to be the lawful wife of the appellant, will be within the recollection of our readers ; and the action commenced in the court of session resulted in those courts also deciding in her favour. Hence the present appeal. Mr Rolt, Q.C., late this afternoon, on the part of Major Yelverton, commenced his arguments in this case, the ob ject of which was to set aside the decision given in the mat ter by the Court of Session in Scotland in favour of the lady. - - The learned gentleman justcommenced his address, when their lordships adjourned. The arguments, it is expected, will last a considerable time, there being no less than twenty counsel engaged in the case. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.)

FLOATING TELEGRAPH STATIONS.—Some years since Prince Albert, who was then an elder brother of the Trinity House, suggested that the light ships round our coast should be connected with the shore by means of electric cables. The question was considered, but no means had then been discovered by which a ship swinging at her moorings could be permanently connected with her ceble,and the far-sighted proposal was not carried out. A company now forming proposes to do that which Prince Albeit sug gested should be done, their object being in the first place profit, but incidentally carrying out the Prince's philan thropic ideas. The first ships to which this novel extension of the present network of telegraphs will be applied are to be stationed off Scilly and Cape Race ; and at both stations it is allowed that not only will a largo telegraphic business be transacted, but that many salvage services will be per formed beneficial to distressed ships crews, and resulting in profit to the salvors for the services rendered. THE FATAL TRAMWAY ACCIDENT NEAR Low Moon.--Another boy, named Isaac Fordoff, resid ing at Wilsey, died during last night, making the number of deaths three. Yesterday the guard of the train, Her bert Barmby, was brought before the West Riding magi strates at Bradford, and remanded till after the inquest, which will be held this morning by Mr J . R. Ingrain, deputy coroner, at the Robin Hood Inn, whither the body of Wilkinson was removed. The absence of some necessary witnesses alone prevented the magistrates from entering into the inquiry yesterday. William Clayton, engine tenter at Storr Hill Incline engine house, was called to prove that the prisoner omitted, at 6 o'clock on Wednesday morning, to attach the rope from the engine to the train, which de. parted down the incline to Wake-lane, and was overturned at the bottom with such a disastrous result.—Manchcsta Examiner.
